March is here! And with it comes spring! We here at Chesterbrook Academy are so excited for this season of budding new opportunities. Our budding learners will use their five senses to explore the new season: hearing the birds chirp, seeing the flowers blossom, smelling the fresh flowers, feeling the warm breeze and tasting the fresh fruits and vegetables.
March is also the month where we celebrate renowned author Dr. Seuss with a literacy burst! Throughout the month of March, all of our classes will be reading Dr. Seuss books. Students will learn about rhyming words and use their imaginations to create crazy new characters.
The first week in March will be Dr. Seuss Week:
- Monday March 4th – Silly Sock Day
- Tuesday March 5th – “Cat in the Hat Day” wear red and white
- Wednesday March 6th – Backwards Day
- Thursday March 7th – Bring in your favorite Dr. Seuss book
- Friday March 8th – Crazy Hair Day
The first week in March will also be our Scholastic Book Fair. The book fair will be set up in the lobby Monday afternoon through Friday. Students and families will have a chance to browse the books and buy their favorites to take home. This is a great way to promote literacy and a love of reading. Studies show that when children pick out their own books, they are more likely to read them and enjoy doing it! Fifty percent of all sales go right back to our school. With the profits, teachers will be able to pick out books for their classrooms!
**Join us Thursday March 7th for an Ice Cream Social from 4:30pm-6:00pm. Come on out and enjoy some “Make Your Own” Ice Cream Sundaes while shopping the book fair for some “cool” new books!!!
